Sindoori Red

The colour red and Indian weddings are rather synonymous with each other. In the 2010s however, the colour had started taking a back seat. Even though it was preferred by many, more contemporary colours were what the brides chose. Whether it was the belief that breaking away from the traditional red suited their personality more or the idea that the hue aged them, other colours came into the limelight. Over the last couple of years, however, the bridal red has started making a comeback. Brides are yet again on the hunt for their perfect red outfit for the big day. So of course, a design maven like Sabyasachi is at the forefront of championing the Indian wedding colour trends. His collection of awe-worthy bridal lehengas and sarees in the signature sindoori red has taken over every bride. With modern cuts and iconic handwork, it seems like this trend is not going away any time soon.

If they are not incorporating it into their wedding day, brides are using this colour for other events. The most popular event seems to the be reception outfit that the girls choose. Ivory lehengas are also a big hit with Parsi brides who want to incorporate their heritage with the iconic Indian wedding lehenga.

Back to Black

On the list of superstitious colours that brides are open to wearing for their wedding, black is also making the rounds. Ivory is one of the banned that has been tried and tested. However, Sabyasachi is also trying his hand at black. His new collection has featured some drool-worthy black lehengas that will make anyone want to grab one. But, we know that you are probably wary of incorporating the colour into your wedding day. So, we suggest using it for other events where the dress code is a little relaxed. However, if you still do not want to wear the colour as a bride, your sister will look just as amazing in it.

All That Glitters Like Gold Is On The List Of Indian Wedding Colour Trends

Indian wedding colour trends are predicted based on the cultural zeitgeist of the people. What do people love at weddings? Do they want to show anything specific? What is the image that they want to create? Any Indian wedding is incomplete without gold. It is the standard auspicious item that is given as gifts and is strewn about as much as possible. So it makes sense that a wedding colour trend for 2023 is gold. The metallic colour can be incorporated in many ways. Be it a gold accent or a gold-on-gold mix, we are sure you will see this metallic hue in all its forms on brides.

Styl Tip: It is not necessary to incorporate Indian wedding colour trends with just your clothes. You can incorporate them into your jewellery and shoes well. If you wish to avoid them for your outfit, include the colours in your décor or pre-wedding shoots. 

A Sea Of Green

Greens have recently started making their way into the wedding world. Traditionally reserved for bridesmaids, the colour is one that brides are leaning towards as well. A favourite for trousseaus, you can see green in many shades. For their wedding outfits, brides incorporate soft greens with bold colours like magenta and gold. The bridal favourites seem to be sage green, moss green and sea green. You can wear these colours with pastels as well as salmon and tangerine for a bright vision. For winter weddings, wear the colour in fabrics like velvet. For day events and summer weddings, opt for soft and flow fabrics.
